Happy Birthday Evelyn!
We have had such a fun day! We woke up and started the morning off with a nice warm bubble bath. Then we got dressed for the day and did Evelyn's hair all pretty in pig-tails. Then mommy painted Evelyn's finger nails and toe nails...so pretty! Then it was breakfast time and mommy made the birthday girl pancakes topped with bananas (Evelyn's favorite fruit)! YUM! After breakfast we had music time and learning time with our shapes. Evelyn has a puzzle with about 10 different shapes and she can do the whole puzzle all by herself! She recognizes all the shapes, but can only name a few - circle, triangle, square, star, and heart.
After some neurological stimulation, we had a mini photo shoot with Claire (adorable). Then we headed out to play for the day and later we met up with daddy for lunch at Evelyn's favorite place - Chick-fil-A. She played hard in the jungle gym which made her extremely exhausted - which was just perfect for a long afternoon birthday nap.
After naptime, daddy came home from work early and we had birthday dinner together. After dinner - it was time to open presents!!! Evelyn LOVES LOVES LOVES - did I say LOVES - the Disney movie Mary Poppins. She has learned how to sing the song "Lets Go Fly a Kite" from the movie and it's hilarious! My mom found a Mary Poppins and Bert doll and shipped them just in time for Evelyn's birthday today. A couple months before we moved into the new house, I found an art stand with a chalk board on one side and a white board on the other. We have been looking for art stands for a while and this was just perfect and I got it for practically nothing because it was used. So I snatched it up and couldn't wait for her birthday to give it to her! She loves it. She went right for the chalk to start coloring! SO FUN! Then we sang "Happy Birthday" and had some cake.
I can't believe my first baby is TWO. She is so smart and beautiful and we love her!
